Send an empty card addressed to ''Sis and Hubby''.

Signed IluvEmeralds and Fiance.

And maybe slip a pic of the ring into the envelope just for *fun*

I mean, especially if you''d decided not to wear it, perhaps the bride would *enjoy* a sneak preview?

Oooh LS!! You are BAD

....but I love the idea of it!! My apologies again for my late responses, I haven''t had much time this week for PS with parent open house and a ton of other things. I''m def. getting my *fix* this morning though!! I honestly don''t know whether my sis knows better. I''m inclined to think she doesn''t just based off of how she''s been treating me the past few weeks, but I also am very jaded.

Either way I have faith that what goes around comes around...and she will eventually get what she deserves. (Let''s hope) In the meantime...I refuse to be like them!!

Thanks ladies!! Happy Saturday to you all!!

I just left you another suggestion in your "should I wear my ring" thread....

Yeah... It''s pretty rude.

When I first read the other post about wearing the ring I thought "just keep it off for the wedding and wait", but now? WEAR IT. What a rude invite! Would sign the card to "sis and hubby" or her name and HUBBY. And forget the cash. Would get them a picture frame or something so they can remember how they looked when they looked like fools in front of everyone else. Stay tasteful on your part!

If I wasn''t in the wedding, I''d seriously consider not attending. Really.

If the fiance of an invited quest is not known to the bride and groom, then I would say "guest" is fine.

But if the fiance is actually an intended invited guest, as I would expect a sibling's fiance to be, then the name is necessary. If you only put on "guest", it means the the fiance is not invited and it would be the sibling's choice to bring anyone they chose.

So it is in fact quite rude to not use the name of your sibling's fiance.

WEAR IT!!! WEAR IT!!! WEAR IT!!!!

I mean, seriously, she and no one else in your family has the right to tell you to push back your engagement and not wear your ring because she''s getting married. Your sister sounds very insecure and hate to say it, but a "bridezilla" in the making. She should know by now that on her wedding day, honestly, no one is even going to be paying attention to anyone as much as her. And that is her DAY. Not the days before, and not the days after. So wear your beautiful ring (can''t wait to see pics when you get it), and wear it PROUDLY!

Thank you!!! Ladies you have all been wonderful! Thank you so much for the honest replies. It is so nice to be able to come on here and vent occaisonally and then receive such great support. As of right now I''m planning on wearing the ring...(assuming it''s done on time!- we hit a snag @ the jeweler............)

HAPPY SUNDAY LADIES

So early on in this whole saga, I was all for not making waves.

But now I think you need to make them. Big ones. Big, splashy, soaking wet waves.
